      Epcot is a fantastic park! Great rides, great atmosphere and great food. Guardians of the galaxy is a must ride! It’s great to see that Epcot have not lost their original objective of education, whilst evolving with newer rides and experiences

      A classic! The park is beautiful but busy! You need to plan your visit meticulously to cover everything if trying to do it in a day. Tron is amazing a great addition for thrill seekers. It will be your longest wait. The biggest issue we had was seeing the fireworks. With walk ways blocked off by staff and having to remain behind the yellow line of tape amongst pushchairs and children sitting on the ground, it honestly becomes very stressful.

      Pandora is a great addition and the Flight of Passage ride is not to be missed! The park closes at 7 in the summer. So you can easily park hop to Epcot or MK for the evening shows.

      Amazing park with lots of shade. Some people say it’s a half day park but there’s so much to do and see I don’t agree. This was our first stop of the holiday and it was brilliant

      We love blizzard beach, a good mix of slides and activities for the kids. The wave pool is not so intense here as typhoon lagoon. It was clean and the facilities were good.

      By far the busiest park but great fun. Remember to give yourself a good 30-40 minutes to actually get into the park and that’s a the least busy times. It’s a monorail or boat from the parking lot

      My favourite and my daughter's favourite too. She was really pleased to see Jenny Hopps and watch the show in the tree of life. The Avatar ride was stunning particularly since, believe it or not, I hadn't seen the movie.

      Loved MK. Rode all rides bar 7 dwarfs minetrain as queue was way too long. We have rode this before and it was not worth the queue. Still loved Pirates and river cruise. Was disappointed with splash mountain upgrade. We queued ah hour and it was rather underwhelming. Miss the catchy tune. Loved the upgrade of Big Thunder Mountain. The ride was smooth and had elements of 7 dwarfs with rocking on the track. TRON was fab, such a great ride. Only negative was that Space mountain needs a refurb. Feels rough after smoothnes of Tron. I believe that is planned so looking foward to future improvements.

      Fab park. Fireworks was lovely. Queues lower on a night apart from Guardians. At rope drop dont ride Guardians straight away, wait for half an hour to let queue settle. It said 60 mins, queue was inside building, it took 45 minutes. Ride was amazing, best ride I went on. Ratatouille was very short and a spinning ride. Was little underwhelmed with this ride. Still loved soaring and the different lands. Frozen was closed. Spaceship Earth could do with an update.
